WLS Success-through Powerful Positive Attitudes
Formally Introducing Myself
My name is Susan but lots of ppl call me Sukie. I just had my Realize Band surgery Wed. and I'm doing ok. Very tired and trying to move around as much as my body will let me, but hanging in there.
I have about 120 pounds to lose but I'm trying to stay very motivated to live a healthier life.I've been lurking in this group and everyone is so positive and helpful already!
Well, it's back to nap land for me lol.
Have a great night everyone and thanks for welcoming me into your group!Hugs
Congrats on having your surgery and know that you have chosen an awesome group to be a part of!
I wish you the best with your journey and welcome you to our extended Bariatric family!! :)

I've got to get more organized about when our new members surgeries are!!! I missed some I think and I feel awful about that. Help remind us when you can! I'm so excited for you and welcome welcome welcome. One of my bestest girls here is Monica and she's a bander. We LOVE all kinds and this is a totally safe environment. No bullies, no nastiness...just love and support.
So glad you're here!

I LOVE your name! Congrats on having surgery. And with a band, yay! It is good to hear ur moving around as much as you can because it will only help and speed up ur recovery. I wish you success and if you have any questions please feel free to ask here or u can pm me. I am 1 yr and 9 mos out with my band and I have lost 146lbs so far...so I think Im doing pretty good. You too WILL get to ur goal weight because you said the majic words "healthier LIFE". Thats what its ALL about.
Take care
Monica
U tell me that I sin,
U say Im bound for hell,
So once ur judgment condemns U,
I SHALL SEE U THERE. 
I'd rather be an OPEN sinner
than a FALSE saint...
